It is Tenant’s intention that the Improvements, once completed, shall substantially consist of a 88,408 square foot one-story building (the “Building”) with parking as required by the REUA and all applicable ordinances. The Improvements may include at some point during the term of this Lease an additional approximately 20,000 square feet which may be constructed by Tenant at Tenant’s sole cost and expense.

In the event that Tenant elects not to terminate this Lease, this Lease shall continue in effect with respect to the portion of the Premises not so taken or sold, with a proportionate reduction in Rent for the balance of the Term. In such event, Tenant shall be entitled to receive an award for the taking of Tenant’s leasehold interest with respect to that portion of the Premises so taken plus an award for the loss of Improvements, loss of business and any other damage that may be proved by Tenant, and Landlord hereby assigns to Tenant the right to same including the right to receive payment directly from the condemning authority.

All of Landlord’s rights and remedies may be exercised and enforced concurrently and whenever and as often as the occasion therefor arises.

 

(c) The failure of Landlord to insist upon strict performance of any of the terms, covenants, and conditions herein shall not be deemed a waiver of any of Landlord’s other rights or remedies and shall not be deemed a waiver of any subsequent breach or default in any of the terms, covenants, and conditions herein contained. No surrender of the Premises shall be effected by Landlord’s acceptance of the keys thereto or acceptance of Rent therefor or by any other means whatsoever unless the same is evidenced by Landlord’s written acceptance of same as a surrender.

(d) In the event that it becomes necessary to enforce the covenants and provisions of this Lease through legal process, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover as an element of damages the reasonable costs, attorney fees, and expenses incurred in such litigation, including the costs of appeal.

(e) Remedies Upon Landlord’s Default. In the event that Landlord shall at any time be in default in the observance or performance of any of the covenants and agreements required to be performed and observed by Landlord hereunder and any such default shall continue for a period of thirty (30) days after written notice to Landlord (or if such default is incapable of being cured in a reasonable manner within thirty (30) days, if Landlord has not commenced to cure the same within such thirty (30)-day period or does not thereafter diligently prosecute the same to completion), Tenant shall be entitled, at its election, to exercise, concurrently or successively, any one or more of the following rights, in addition to all remedies otherwise provided in this Lease and otherwise available at law or in equity:

(i) To bring suit for the collection of any amounts for which Landlord may be in default, or for the performance of any other covenant or agreement devolving upon Landlord, without terminating this Lease; or

In the event that Tenant elects to terminate this Lease as aforesaid, all rights and obligations of Tenant, and of any successors or assigns, shall cease and terminate, except that Tenant shall have and retain full right to sue for and collect all amounts for the payment of which Landlord shall then be in default.

All remedies of Tenant herein created or remedies otherwise existing at law or in equity are cumulative and the exercise of one or more right or remedies shall not be taken to exclude or waive the right to the exercise of any other. All such rights and remedies may be exercised and enforced concurrently and whenever and as often as Tenant shall deem necessary.

31. Right of First Offer.

(a) If at any time after the Commencement Date Landlord desires to offer the Premises or any portion thereof for sale (the “Proposed Sale Parcel”), then prior to offering to sell the Proposed Sale Parcel to any other person or entity Landlord shall offer Tenant the right to purchase the Proposed Sale Parcel by sending to Tenant a written notice of the specific terms of an offer to sell including price (the “Offering Amount”), payment terms, conditions of title, costs of escrow and all other material terms, and a proposed purchase agreement and joint escrow instructions reflecting such terms, executed by Landlord (the “Proposed Agreement”).

(b) Tenant shall have thirty (30) days after its receipt of the Proposed Agreement to exercise its right to purchase the Proposed Sale Parcel by executing the Proposed Agreement and transmitting it to Landlord, or by submitting a counteroffer. If Tenant counteroffers, Landlord and Tenant shall negotiate diligently and in good faith in order to attempt to reach an agreement within ten (10) days after Landlord receives Tenant’s counteroffer. If Tenant does not elect to accept such offer in writing within said thirty (30)-day period, or if Landlord and Tenant do not reach written agreement on Tenant’s

10


 

counteroffer within such ten (10)-day period, then for a period of one hundred eighty (180) days thereafter (the “Third Party Sale Period”) Landlord may offer to sell the Proposed Sale Parcel to a third party on the same terms as were set forth in the Proposed Agreement. If Landlord fails to enter into an agreement in writing on such terms and conditions with any third party during the Third Party Sale Period, and if Landlord again desires to offer the Proposed Sale Parcel for sale, Landlord shall again follow the foregoing procedure for granting Tenant the right of first offer. In the event that Tenant determines not to exercise its right to purchase the Proposed Sale Parcel, then upon written request of Landlord Tenant shall deliver a written statement setting forth such determination.

(c) As a condition precedent to accepting a third party offer during the Third Party Sale Period for an amount less than ninety-five percent (95%) of the Offering Amount, or accepting any offer which is on terms substantially more favorable to the purchaser than in the Proposed Agreement, Landlord shall give Tenant notice of such terms together with the applicable purchase agreement and joint escrow instructions, and Tenant shall have an additional thirty (30) days after the receipt of such notice and joint escrow instructions to exercise this right of first offer. If Tenant accepts such revised proposal, the Landlord and Tenant shall execute the revised purchase agreement and joint escrow instructions reflecting the more favorable terms within ten (10) days, or as soon thereafter as is reasonably possible. If Tenant fails to accept such offer within the thirty (30)-day period or does not execute such joint escrow instructions within the ten (10)-day period, Landlord shall be free to sell the Proposed Sale Parcel during the Third Party Sale Period on terms no more favorable than were most recently offered to Tenant. At no time may Landlord sell the Proposed Sale Parcel on terms which are more favorable than were first offered to Tenant in the manner specified herein. Tenant may enforce its rights under this Section 31 by obtaining a court order for specific performance, or damages, or both, and shall be entitled to an award of its costs of suit, including attorneys’ fees, in addition to any other relief which the court awards.

(d) This right of first offer shall remain in full force and effect throughout the Term of this Lease, including the Option Terms, and shall apply to any and all successor Landlords.

32. Limited Liability of Original Tenant NSHE Bassett, LLC. Landlord shall not have recourse for the enforcement of any obligation, promise or agreement of original Tenant NSHE Bassett, LLC (“NSHE”) contained in this Lease or for any claim based hereon or otherwise in respect hereof against any director, member, officer, agent, attorney or employee, as such, in his individual capacity, past, present, or future, of NSHE or of any successor entity of NSHE (other than assignees under this Lease), whether by virtue of any constitutional provisions, statue or rule of law, or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty or otherwise. No personal liability whatsoever shall attach to, or be incurred by, any director, member, officer, agent, attorney, or employee, as such, past, present or future, of NSHE of any successor entity (other than assignees under this Lease), under or by reason of any of the obligations, promises or agreements entered into between Landlord and Tenant, whether contained in this Lease or to be implied herefrom as being supplemental hereto, and all personal liability of that character against every such director, member, officer, agent, attorney and employee is, by the execution of this Lease and as a condition of, and as part of the consideration for, the execution of this Lease, expressly waived and released. The immunity of directors, members, officers, agents, attorneys and employees of NSHE under the provisions contained in this paragraph shall survive the completion of the project, the sale thereof, and the expiration of the Term of, or earlier termination of, this Lease. This limitation of liability shall not apply to any assignees of Tenant’s rights under this Lease by is only given to NSHE because it is an accommodator to a deferred tax exchange.

The Home Depot Lease is evidenced by a certain Amended and Restated Memorandum of Lease dated as of November 21, 2002, and recorded on November 27, 2002, in the office of the Pima County, Arizona, Recorder at Docket 11935, Page 13209. Home Depot U.S.A. Inc. and its successors and assigns as Tenant under the Home Depot Lease, and any extension or renewal thereof, are referred to herein collectively as “Home Depot.”

C. Pursuant to the Home Depot Lease, Home Depot leases from October Group that portion of the Shopping Center Property legally described in Exhibit “B” hereto (the “Home Depot Premises”). October Group owns the fee interest (the “Underlying Fee”) in the Home Depot Premises. The record holder of fee title to the Underlying Fee, its heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns (whether by sale, transfer, foreclosure, deed in lieu of foreclosure, or otherwise) is referred to herein as the “Underlying Fee Owner”.

 

D. October Group was originally also the owner of that certain real property legally described in Exhibit “C” attached hereto (the “Adjoining Parcel”). October Group has now conveyed that portion of the Adjoining Parcel legally described in Exhibit “D” attached hereto to Pima Federal (the “Pima Federal Parcel”). The record holder of fee title to any portion of the Adjoining Parcel, its heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns (whether by sale, transfer, foreclosure, deed in lieu of foreclosure, or otherwise) is referred to herein as an “Adjoining Parcel Owner” or “Adjoining Parcel Owners”.

E. In addition to the Home Depot Lease, October Group and Home Depot entered into that certain Reciprocal Ingress-Egress Easement Agreement dated as of April 19, 2002, and recorded on July 9, 2002, in the office of the Pima County, Arizona, Recorder at Docket 11837, Page 1966, as amended by that certain First Amendment to Reciprocal Ingress-Egress Easement dated as of February    , 2003, and recorded on February     , 2003, in the office of the Pima County, Arizona, Recorder at Docket             , Page      (collectively, the “Home Depot REA”), by the terms of which October Group and Home Depot set forth certain reciprocal easement rights with respect to the Shopping Center Property and the Adjoining Parcel and agreed to certain maintenance obligations with respect to the “Common Areas” (as defined in the Home Depot REA), and agreed to certain use restrictions and prohibitions encumbering the Adjoining Parcel.

Notwithstanding October Group’s ownership of the Underlying Fee and October Group’s and Pima Federal’s ownership of the Adjoining Parcel, such common ownership shall not cause a merger of any of the easements, rights and benefits granted hereunder for the benefit of the Home Depot Premises and the Underlying Fee over the Adjoining Parcel nor cause the merger of any of the obligations or burdens placed hereunder upon the Adjoining Parcel for the benefit of the Home Depot Premises and the Underlying Fee.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

AGREEMENTS

1. Section 1 of the Agreement is hereby deleted and replaced in its entirety with the following:

“There is hereby granted, declared and reserved, for the mutual and reciprocal benefit of the Parcel Owners, PFCU and the Adjoining Parcel Owner, and their respective successors, assigns and lessees and sublessees (including, without limitation, the Kohl’s Parcel Occupant), a non-exclusive perpetual easement upon, over and across the Common Areas now or hereafter existing on the Properties for the purposes set forth in Section 2 below and for no other purposes whatsoever.”

2. Section 4 of the Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:

“4. Shopping Center Signs.

(a) Grant of Easement. Each Party hereby grants and conveys to the other Party, for their use and for the use of designated occupants of the Properties, a non-exclusive perpetual easement under, through and across the Common Area of the Properties for the installation, operation, maintenance, repair and replacement of the Shopping Center Signs (as defined in subparagraph (b) below) and all Utility Lines (as defined in Section 6 below) located on the Properties. Home Depot and the Kohl’s Parcel Occupant, and their respective successors, assigns, lessees and sublessees, shall have the right and privilege to place sign panels on the Shopping Center Signs within the panel space allocated to such Party in subparagraph (b) below and Exhibit “G” of this Agreement. The foregoing easement, together with the rights included therewith, shall be for the benefit of and appurtenant to the lands of each of the Parties entitled to place sign panels on the Shopping Center Signs and shall be binding on and burden the lands upon which the Shopping Center Signs are constructed.

 

(b) Permitted Signage. With respect to this Agreement, the freestanding signs shall be used to identify Home Depot, as occupant of the Premises, and the Kohl’s Parcel Occupant (collectively, the “Shopping Center Signs”). With respect to the Shopping Center Sign located along East Broadway Boulevard, Home Depot shall be entitled to the top seventy percent (70%) of the panel space thereon and the Kohl’s Parcel Occupant shall be entitled to the remaining thirty percent (30%). With respect to the Shopping Center Sign located along Pantano Road, the Kohl’s Parcel Occupant shall be entitled to the top thirty percent (30%) of the panel space thereon and Home Depot shall be entitled to the remaining seventy percent (70%). Each outlot may have a monument sign to identify one (1) occupant of the outlot, but only if such monument sign does not preclude the installation of the Shopping Center Signs.

(c) Construction; Maintenance. Home Depot shall construct and install the Shopping Center Signs in conformance with the design and dimensions, and the allocation of the panel areas, more particularly set forth in Exhibit “G” of this Agreement. Within thirty (30) days of receipt of an invoice from Home Depot, the Kohl’s Parcel Occupant shall reimburse Home Depot for all the costs related to and incurred by Home Depot for the design, construction and installation of the Shopping Center Signs. Home Depot shall be responsible for the ongoing maintenance, repair and replacement of the Shopping Center Signs. The Kohl’s Parcel Occupant shall reimburse Home Depot for thirty percent (30%) of such maintenance, repair and replacement costs within thirty (30) days of receipt of an invoice from Home Depot. If Home Depot fails to perform its maintenance and repair obligations under this Section 4(c), then, upon ten (10) days’ prior written notice to Home Depot (except that no notice shall be required in an emergency), the Kohl’s Parcel Occupant shall have the right, but not the obligation, to cure such default for the account of and at the expense of Home Depot. If the Kohl’s Parcel Occupant exercises its self-help right, then, within ten (10) days after receipt of an invoice from the Kohl’s Parcel Occupant, Home Depot shall reimburse the Kohl’s Parcel Occupant all costs reasonably incurred in curing such default plus a ten percent (10%) maintenance fee. Home Depot and the Kohl’s Parcel Occupant shall each install and illuminate its sign panels on the Shopping Center Signs at its own cost and expense.

(d) Modifications. The Shopping Center Signs shall not be modified without the prior written consent of the Parties entitled to display sign panels thereon, except that Home Depot and the Kohl’s Parcel Occupant shall have the unqualified right to use in the panel or space allocated to them on the Shopping Center Signs their identification signage.”

 

3. The last paragraph of Section 6 is hereby deleted and replaced in its entirety with the following:

“The Adjoining Parcel Owner shall be responsible for the ongoing maintenance and repair of the Truck Lane (as defined below). Such maintenance and repair shall include repaving (at least once every ten (10) years), seal coating (at least once every two (2) years), repairs, sweeping and striping (as reasonably necessary). The Adjoining Parcel Owner shall be

10


 

responsible for all costs and expenses incurred in the maintenance and repair of the Truck Lane. In no event shall Home Depot be obligated to reimburse, contribute or pay for the maintenance and repair of the Truck Lane. If the Adjoining Parcel Owner fails to perform its maintenance and repair obligations under this Section 6, then, upon ten (10) days’ prior written notice to the Adjoining Parcel Owner and the Kohl’s Parcel Occupant (except that no notice shall be required in an emergency), Home Depot shall have the right, but not the obligation, to cure such default for the account of and at the expense of the Adjoining Parcel Owner and the Kohl’s Parcel Occupant. If Home Depot exercises its self-help right, then, within ten (10) days after receipt of an invoice from Home Depot, the Adjoining Parcel Owner or the Kohl’s Parcel Occupant shall reimburse Home Depot all costs reasonably incurred in curing such default plus a ten percent (10%) maintenance fee.

Home Depot, at its sole cost and expense, shall be responsible for the initial construction of the Truck Lane and the Truck Lane Lighting (as defined below). The Truck Lane shall be lit and conform to the lighting (with respect to the location and number of lights) as depicted on the Site Plan (the “Truck Lane Lighting”). Once constructed, the Kohl’s Parcel Occupant shall be responsible for the maintenance, repair, insurance and replacement of the Truck Lane Lighting, including light standards, wires, conduits, lamps, ballasts and lenses, time clocks and circuit breakers (and all service/facilities and hardware thereto) along the Truck Lane. Within thirty (30) days of receipt of an invoice from the Kohl’s Parcel Occupant, Home Depot shall reimburse the Kohl’s Parcel Occupant for (i) fifty percent (50%) of the cost for maintenance, repair, insurance and replacement of the Truck Lane Lighting, including light standards, wires, conduits, lamps, ballasts and lenses, time clocks and circuit breakers (and all service/facilities and hardware thereto); and (ii) fifty-two percent (52%) of the utility costs with respect to the light poles along the Truck Lane. The Kohl’s Parcel Occupant shall keep the Truck Lane Lighting illuminated from dusk until the then current delivery and lighting restrictions pursuant to local governmental regulations. The parties acknowledge that as of the date of this First Amendment local governmental regulations limit the hours which the Truck Lane may be lit to a minimum required for security and low pressure sodium application between the hours of 10 p.m. and 7 a.m. Pursuant to the foregoing the Truck Lane Lighting shall be lit to the minimum required for security purposes and with low pressure sodium application until at least 11:00 p.m. Notwithstanding the allocation of costs set forth above, in the event the local governmental regulations are amended so as to permit delivery and full lighting beyond 10:00 p.m., the allocation of utility costs shall conform to the following schedules:

6. Section 13 of the Agreement is hereby deleted and replaced in its entirety with the following:

The provisions herein may be enforced by the owners of the Original Parcels, the Adjoining Parcel Owner, October Group, HDB, Home Depot, PFCU and the Kohl’s Parcel Occupant.”

 

7. A new Section 21 is hereby created reading as follows:

“The building to be constructed on the Premises is to be built as category V-NR as that category is defined pursuant to the applicable building code. The Kohl’s Parcel Occupant covenants and agrees that the building on the Kohl’s Parcel will be constructed, remodeled or expanded so as not to cause the building on the Premises to be other than a category V-NR under the applicable building code. Home Depot, in turn, covenants and agrees that the building on the Premises will be constructed, remodeled or expanded so as not to cause the building on the Kohl’s Parcel to be other than a category II-NR or V-NR under the applicable building code.”

8. In the event of a conflict between the provisions of this First Amendment and the Agreement, the provisions of this First Amendment shall govern, control and prevail.

9. Except as expressly modified in this First Amendment, the terms and provisions of the Agreement are hereby ratified and affirmed and shall continue in full force and effect.

10. This First Amendment may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which may be executed by one or more of the signatory parties hereto. Signature pages may be detached from the counterparts and attached to a single copy of this First Amendment to form one legally effective document.

PRIMARY GROUND LESSOR NON-DISTURBANCE AND ATTORNMENT AGREEMENT

THIS GROUND LESSOR NON-DISTURBANCE AND ATTORNMENT AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of the                  day of                     , 2003, by and between OCTOBER 23RD GROUP L.L.C., an Arizona limited liability company (“Ground Lessor”), and KOHL’S DEPARTMENT STORES, INC., a Delaware corporation (“Tenant”).

PRELIMINARY STATEMENTS

A. Ground Lessor is the fee owner of certain property located in Tucson, Pima County, Arizona, and legally described in Exhibit “A” attached hereto and made a part hereof (the “Premises”).

B. Pursuant to a certain Land Lease dated as of January 24, 2003 (the “Ground Lease”), notice of which is recorded in the Pima County, Arizona, Recorder’s Office at Docket                 , Page             , Ground Lessor leased the Premises to NHSE Bassett, LLC, a Wisconsin limited liability company (“Secondary Ground Lessor”).

C. Pursuant to a certain Lease dated as of                         , 2003 (the “Secondary Ground Lease”), notice of which is recorded in the Pima County, Arizona, Recorder’s Office at Docket                 , Page                 , Secondary Ground Lessor leased the Premises to Continental 34 Fund Limited Partnership, a Wisconsin limited partnership (“Landlord”).

D. Landlord subleased the Premises to Tenant pursuant to a certain Sublease dated as of                             , 2003 (the “Lease”).

E. As a condition precedent to the performance of Tenant’s obligations under the Lease and the performance of Ground Lessor’s obligations under the Ground Lease, Tenant and Ground Lessor have required the other to enter into this Agreement, and they have agreed to do so.

 

AGREEMENTS

NOW, THEREFORE, for valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1. So long as Tenant is not in default (beyond any period given Tenant by the terms of the Lease to cure such default) in the performance of the terms, covenants, conditions and provisions contained in the Lease and so long as Tenant observes the provisions of this Agreement, Ground Lessor agrees that if the Ground Lease is terminated by reason of any default on the part of Secondary Ground Lessor or if the Ground Lease is terminated for any other reason, then (a) the Lease and the rights of Tenant under the Lease shall not be disturbed by Ground Lessor but shall continue in full force and effect for so long as Tenant continues to observe and perform all of Tenant’s obligations under the Lease, and (b) Ground Lessor shall recognize Tenant’s rights under the Lease and be bound by all of Landlord’s obligations under the Lease, including but not limited to provisions in the Lease dealing with condemnation, fire and other casualties, for the balance of the unexpired term of the Lease (including any optional extension period properly exercised), except in accordance with the provisions thereof.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Ground Lessor shall not be:

(a) Liable for any damages or other relief attributable to any act or omission or indemnity obligation of Landlord or any other prior landlord;

(b) Obligated to cure any defaults of Landlord or any other prior landlord under the Lease that has occurred prior to the time that Ground Lessor succeeded to the interest of Landlord under the Lease;

(c) Liable for any damage or other relief attributable to any breach of any representation or warranty contained in the Lease by Landlord or any prior landlord under the Lease;

(d) Subject to any offsets or defenses that Tenant might have against Landlord or any prior landlord;

(e) Bound by any prepayment of rent or additional rent that Tenant might have paid for more than the current month to Landlord or any prior landlord;

 

(f) Bound by any amendment or modification of the Lease or by any waiver or forbearance on the part of Landlord or any prior landlord made or given without the written consent of Ground Lessor;

25


 

(g) Bound to make any payment to Tenant or to perform any design or construction requirements called for in the Lease;

(h) Liable for any warranties or guaranties relating to the construction of improvements on the Premises, including any warranties or guaranties for defective workmanship and materials; or

(i) Liable or responsible for or with respect to the retention, application or return to Tenant of any security deposit paid to Landlord or any prior landlord, unless and until Ground Lessor has actually received for its own account as landlord the full amount of such security deposit.

2. If the interest of Landlord in the Premises shall be terminated or shall be transferred to Ground Lessor, Tenant shall be bound to Ground Lessor under all of the terms, covenants and conditions of the Lease for the balance of the term remaining and any extensions or renewals thereof that may be effected in accordance with any option therefor in the Lease, with the same force and effect as if Ground Lessor were the landlord under the Lease. Specifically and without limitation, the personal guaranty set forth in the Lease by Kohl’s Corporation, a Wisconsin corporation, shall inure to the benefit of Ground Lessor. Tenant does hereby agree to attorn to Ground Lessor and to execute such documents and instruments confirming the same as Ground Lessor shall reasonably request.

3. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Ground Lessor shall not be liable for any default of any prior landlord, nor shall Tenant assert against Ground Lessor any claims, defenses or offsets that Tenant may have had against any prior landlord. Tenant agrees that any liability that accrues to Ground Lessor, and its successors and assigns, for the performance of the obligations of Landlord under the Lease shall be limited to the assets comprising the Premises, the income therefrom and the net proceeds of the sales thereof, and Tenant shall not have the right to enforce any such liability against any other assets of Ground Lessor. Ground Lessor shall not be bound by any payment of rent, additional rent or other sums made by Tenant for more than one month in advance of the due date therefor.

 

4. Tenant shall give Ground Lessor a copy of any notice of default that it shall give to Landlord, and Tenant shall not terminate the Lease on account thereof or exercise its other rights under the Lease until the same period of time afforded in the Lease for Landlord to cure such default shall have lapsed but in no event less than sixty (60) days, which period may run concurrently with that of Landlord, during which period Ground Lessor shall have the right, but not the obligation, to cure such default; provided, however, that if Tenant, from time to time, has agreed with a then current mortgage holder that such mortgage holder shall be afforded a longer period of time in which to cure such default, Ground Lessor shall be afforded the same period of time to cure as such mortgage holder before Tenant may terminate the Lease or exercise other rights on account thereof.

5. Tenant shall, upon notice from Ground Lessor of termination of the Ground Lease, thereafter pay directly to Ground Lessor all amounts payable by Tenant to Landlord under the Lease, pro-rated to the date of termination. Landlord hereby irrevocably and unconditionally directs Tenant to comply with such demand.

6. Notices shall be deemed given at the time of delivery to the addressee; but if delivery shall fail because of refusal or acceptance or absence of a period to accept delivery during normal business hours, the notice shall be deemed given at the time of attempted delivery as attested by the United States Postal Service or any national or regional so-called overnight courier which attempted delivery. The address of Tenant is N56 W17000 Ridgewood Drive, Menomonee Falls, Wisconsin 53051, Attention: Chairman, with a copy similarly sent to Tenant at N56 W17000 Ridgewood Drive, Menomonee Falls, Wisconsin 53051, Attention: General Counsel. The address of Ground Lessor is 6040 N. Tocito Place, Tucson, Arizona 85718, Attention: Steven A. Mar. Either party may change its address by written notice to the other.

7. This Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto, their successors and assigns. As used herein, the term “Tenant” shall include Tenant, its successors and assigns as permitted under the Lease, the term “Landlord” shall include Landlord, its successors and assigns as permitted under the Lease, and the word “Ground Lessor” shall include Ground Lessor specifically named herein and any of its successors and assigns, including any successor landlord.

 

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this Agreement as of the month, day and year first above written.
